500-3 Teck 90 Bare Copper Aluminum Interlocked Armored Cable With Ground 1KV

Allowable Ampacity for 500 MCM 3C W/ Ground Teck 90 Bare Copper Aluminum Interlocked Armored Cable 1KV: 395 Amps

Applications:

Teck90 is an armored interlocked electrical cable designed for many industrial applications. It is often used in pulp and paper mills, steel mills, food processing plants, commercial centers, mines, generating stations, refineries, industrial plants, and chemical plants. The electrical wire is suitable for direct earth burial. Teck90 is used in ventilated, non-ventilated, and ladder-type cable trays. The wire is fit for service entrance above and below the ground. With HL glands, it is suitable for use in various hazardous locations. The cable is rated at 90°C wet or dry, while the minimum temperature is -40°C. The voltage rating is 1000 volts. Teck90 can serve as a cheaper alternative to installations in conduit.
